TPCCafe Radio Presents Classic Thrillers, Suspense: The Night Reveals Digitally Restored by Nicholas Hans Gary

Suspense: "The Bluebeard Killer"Airing: October 29, 1946Starring: Merle OberonThis thrilling episode of Suspense plunges listeners into the dangerous world of the French underground during World War II. The narrative centers on a courageous French doctor and his equally brave wife, who are actively involved in the resistance movement against the Nazi occupation. Their latest, audacious plan involves setting a trap for a high-ranking German colonel, luring him into their home with a cunning deception.The wife, played by the talented Merle Oberon, is the key to this perilous scheme. She initiates contact with the Nazi officer, feigning desperation as she confides in him her "suspicion" that her own husband is the elusive "Bluebeard Killer." This mysterious assassin has been a thorn in the side of the Gestapo, systematically murdering their officials, thus creating a climate of fear and paranoia within their ranks. By subtly implying her husband's involvement, she skillfully manipulates the colonel's curiosity and desire to apprehend this notorious killer, drawing him into their carefully laid trap.The compelling story for "The Bluebeard Killer" was penned by Silvia Richards. A significant contributor to the Suspense anthology, Silvia Richards was not only a prolific writer for the radio series but also the wife of its esteemed editor, Robert L. Richards. Her contributions extended beyond radio, as she also wrote several screenplays, showcasing her versatility and talent across different mediums.

At a dull dinner party, a man conjures up an imaginary companion—“a woman in grey”—claiming she'll haunt those he dislikes so he doesn't have to deal with them.

What started as a carefree summer job in 1970 turned into a life-or-death experience for 19-year-old Eileen Whitaker. While exploring the snowy terrain near Wyoming's Togwotee Lodge, Eileen was unexpectedly electrocuted while trying to lift a snowmobile from a melting snow puddle. Paralyzed by the shock, submerged in freezing water, and left unconscious, she awoke six feet away from the snowmobile — with a spark plug in her hand and no memory of how she got there.Experts from the snowmobile company later told her: she should have died.

TVC 694.1: Ed welcomes back Tom Lisanti, renowned historian of sixties cinema, and the author of such books as Carol Lynley: Her Film & TV Career in Thrillers, Fantasy and Suspense and Ryan's Hope: An Oral History of Daytime's Groundbreaking Soap. Tom's recent books include Dueling Harlows: The Race to Bring the Actress's Life to the Silver Screen, everything you wanted to know about the two major motion pictures released in 1965 about screen legend Jean Harlow—both of which happened to be named Harlow—and the highly publicized efforts by rival producers Bill Sargent and Joseph Levine to out-do each other. Sargent's Harlow, a quickly made independent movie starring Carol Lynley, was filmed in black and white, using Sargent's patented technology Electronovision. Levine's Harlow, a big budget biopic starring Carroll Baker, was filmed in color for Paramount Pictures. Both Harlows were originally released within a few weeks of each other in 1965; both are available now on home entertainment. Dueling Harlows is available from McFarlandPub.com. Topics this segment include why the Lynley/Sargent Harlow is much better than what the original reviews would suggest; how Lynley originally signed on because Judy Garland was attached to the project, only to remain stuck on it once Garland quit; and why the real-life story of Harlow herself generated such interest in movie makers.

“Get this and get it straight!” We're celebrating Gerald Mohr - the radio actor who brought a two-fisted intensity to Philip Marlowe - in honor of his birthday on June 11. He was one of the best stars of the era, and his performance makes The Adventures of Philip Marlowe one of the best detective dramas of the day. We'll hear Mohr as Marlowe in “The Easy Mark” (originally aired on CBS on January 29, 1949) and “The Long Arm” (originally aired on CBS on February 7, 1950). Then, he's a less scrupulous character in “Lady with a Key” from The Whistler (originally aired on CBS on April 2, 1950). Finally, he co-stars with Jack Benny in “A Good and Faithful Servant,” a story of a $50,000 department store heist and the mild-mannered clerk who pulls it off, from Suspense (originally aired on CBS on June 2, 1952).

A quaint English village is gripped by terror when an unseen force rings church bells, plays records, and leaves behind no trace — only the chilling presence of a man without a body!
